Inp.polri.go.id - Jakarta.   Indonesia climbed to third place in Group C of the 2026 FIFA World Cup Asian Qualifiers after edging past China 1–0 on Thursday night(5/6/2025)  at Gelora Bung Karno Stadium, Jakarta.

The breakthrough came in the 40th minute when Ricky Kambuaya was brought down in the box by Zexiang Yang. After a VAR review, Uzbek referee Rustam Lutfullin awarded a penalty, which was calmly converted by Ole Romeny—his third goal in as many appearances for Indonesia, as reported by antaranews.com.

The hosts dominated much of the first half and defended well in the second, with goalkeeper Emil Audero making a crucial save to deny Wang Yudong’s long-range effort. China struggled to break through Indonesia’s backline, led by Jay Idzes, Rizky Ridho, and Justin Hubner.

The victory secured Indonesia’s place in the fourth round, alongside Saudi Arabia, who beat Bahrain 2–0. With 12 points, Indonesia are now out of reach of both Bahrain and China.
